360 Day Veteran Reward - Aetheryte Ticket

[ReiszRie]

well guess what, our feedback and "ranting" here contributed to the devs decision to include both the Warrior of Light Minion & Chocobo Barding in the 360 days Veteran Rewards.

Seems like even the devs does not agree with those in defense of the original 360 days veteran rewards (odin minion + 50 free teleport) and instead agrees with our stance instead.

The rank 7 rewards were added to the list at the same time as the rank 6 rewards, and they haven't changed. They've been minion/barding of light for just as long as rank 6 has been wind-up Odin & aetheryte tickets.

Do watch the live letter

Incorrect. The Live Letter just said they are giving us Warrior of Light Minion + Barding with the 360 day reward. In other words, you are getting four rewards for the 360 day milestone. As such, there is currently no 450 day reward (but you can't reach rank 7 yet anyways).

Ah. Gotcha.

I shall blame a lack of caffeine.

Contributed, yes. Agree with your stance, probably not. If they did agree, they would have left rank 7 as is and added something else to rank 6. Taking the easiest route by lumping both ranks was an act of convenience for them. They wouldn't have made rank 6 the way it was if they didn't feel it appropriate. Everything is already roadmapped. Even the vet rewards are planned well in advance, just not announced.

Well, our stance was simply that the Rank 7 rewards was inappropriate from our stand point which the devs agree hence the change to incorporate Rank 8 rewards into Rank 7 as a compromise. If you thought our stance was focused solely on changing the aetheryte tickets and not on the Rank 7 rewards as a whole, then you've been misunderstanding us and our comments.

Never had we said that the 50 aetheryte ticket must be changed or replaced but simply that an Odin minion and 50 aetheryte ticket wasn't cutting it for us.

There is little need to continue this discussion as the devs have already spoken and the issue has already been resolved.

Interesting statement

In light of the recent revelation that the 360 day veteran reward is just 50 consumable Aetheryte tickets, this thread is to request that this be changed.

IMO the reward would have fit in more nicely for a 30 day sub - because the equivelant 20,000g is still a fairly substantial amount at this stage in the game. One year in, though, this amount is, at best, nominal.

Scrap the tickets and replace them with something more substantive/meaningful.
